Garmin Connect Upload limit (qty of like events)

Hi All,

I did my marathon training today as three loops of a 6 mile trail. At the end of each loop I stopped for water. So I stopped the watch timer and "saved" the event by holding down reset on my 910XL (for the three count that comes up) and then the watch was reset ready to go for the next loop. My loops got progressively worse and I must try harder.

Anyway..... when I came to sync, it could only sync the first two loops. Nothing would make the third item sync. I tried different computers to make sure it wasn't my PC.

So prepared to write this off as yet-another-sync-anomaly with GC I went to the site and tried to make a manual entry, transcribing the data from my watch screen into the various fields by hand. Of course I would lose all the HR, grade and cadence data but at least the summary data would be uploaded.

Thing is - adding a manual entry for RUN also failed - it would not save and GC said "we encountered an error saving". This makes me think there may be a limit on how many events of the same type I can sync for any given day of working out. Has anyone experienced anything like this?

Currently now it won't sync anything else from this 910XT or from my VIVOSMART band. I am locked out of syncing altogether. I tried starting another event on the watch for 30 seconds, saving that and syncing, but it won't save that either.

Any ideas?

    No one can sync with GC right now. The server has problems.
